The Hitchhiker
(专辑: An American Prayer - 1978)
Thoughts in time and out of season The
Hitchhiker Stood by the
side of the
road And leveled his thumb In the
calm calculus of reason Hi. How you doin'? I
just got back into town L.A. I
was out on the
desert for awhile "Riders on the
storm" Yeah. In the
middle of it "Riders on the
storm" Right... "Into this world we're born" Hey, listen, man, I
really got a
problem "Into this world we're thrown" When I
was out on the
desert, ya know "Like a
dog without a
bone An actor out on loan" I
don't know how to tell you "Riders on the
storm" But, ah, I
killed somebody "There's a
killer on the
road" No... "His brain is squirming like a
toad" It's no big deal, ya know I
don't think anybody will find out about it, but... " take a
long holiday" Just, ah... "Let your children play" This guy gave me a
ride, and ah... "If you give this man a
ride" Started giving me a
lot of trouble "Sweet family will die" And I
just couldn't take it, ya know "Killer on the
road" And I
wasted him Yeah
